Valley of the Kings Songtext
von Marc Cohn

Down along these hillside
Many miles ago
Lived a man of vision child
But little did I know, know

He was always talking child
About the heart and soul
'Til one day some pharaoh came
Then he offered up his dole

In the valley
In the valley of the kings
In the valley
The valley of the kings, the kings

[Incomprehensible]


As he lives up in a tower now
Very high upon a hill
People come from miles around
Only hoping that he will

Turn their dreams right into gold
Could he turn their worlds around, 'round, 'round?
And if he does he'll keep it all
Then he stash it underground, down

In the valley
In the valley of the kings
In the valley
The valley of the kings, the kings

In the valley
In the valley of the kings
In the valley
The valley of the kings

In the valley
In the valley of the kings
In the valley
The valley of the kings, the kings
